Its been how long since I've posted???
Some how I've blinked and 3 1/2 months have past. I've been busy, like insanely busy. Through word of mouth my design business is taking off. I used to have 1 main client, and now I have 4 all doing a good amount of business with me each month. Plus the smaller projects that come in. So my days are get up, eat breakfast, turn Fiona loose for an ( Read more... ) -
First Birthday
I can't believe that Fiona is 1 years old! I year ago Fiona made a rather dramatic entrance, and weighed in at 4lbs 14oz. A year later she is a walking, talking toddler.

Almost a year
Its hard to believe that last year at this time I was in the hospital with preterm labor. At that time I was facing spending a month sitting in the hospital to get to 36 weeks. Fiona had other plans and I was only there 10 days. The other night Mark and I were discussing how different everything was a year ago. For me I was physically uncomfortable ( Read more... ) -

What I have an 11 month old??? She is such a big girl! Sometimes I will see her sleeping in her crib or catch a glimpse of her in my rear view mirror and wonder where my baby went. She is becoming a little girl.
She is on the verge of walking. She will take a step and then drop to her knees or her butt and take off in a crawl. She points at ( Read more... ) -
Self soothing
For the last few weeks we have been going back and forth to doctors trying to figure out what was going on with Fiona. When we put her down she would constantly grab her tummy and cry. She would curl up and then straighten while grabbing her tummy. Her pediatrician was worried that she was having infantile spasms, which is basically baby epilepsy. ( Read more... ) -
# 28 - Making Cheese
Lots has been going on lately. I've been busy with work, and poor Fiona has been having some issues. She keeps grabbing her tummy and curling up. We have no idea what is going on, and are working with her pediatrician to try to figure it out.
Amidst all the craziness a friend and I took a cheese class (# 28). So much fun! I'm hoping to make my own ( Read more... ) -
# 73
Since LA no longer has a tofu festival, and I haven't heard of any other tofu festivals, I am substituting tofu festival for tofu tasting and factory tour. So here is #73
My old room mate sent me a message a few weeks ago asking if I wanted to go tofu tasting... did I? What a silly question, of course I did! So last week we headed up to Hodo Tofu in ( Read more... ) -
10 months
Fiona turned 10 months old on saturday, how did that happen? She is much more a little girl and less babyish. She wants so badly to be independent and will push things away that she doesn't want. She also drops food over the edge of her high chair when she is done with it... the dogs are thrilled!
She is still crawling all over the place and has ( Read more... ) -

Mother's Day
Finally I got to celebrate Mother's Day with a living child. I got to snuggle her and spend the day be glad that I was her mother. Its also a bitter sweet day because its a reminder that only one of my daughters are here with me, but it makes me appreciate Fiona even more. Even when she is crying or refusing to sleep I still love her and am happy ( Read more... )
